“We Martians come and conquer. We Martians interested and studied Mearth in years. MEarth must answer We Martians’ questions or Mearth be conquered. ” These were the alarming messages from the signals that the aliens transmitted to a satellite on Mearth. The signals were so advanced that only math language can interpret
“You are chosen, Young Heroes, to save Mearth and Mearthkind from the destructive plan of the Martians. Your heroic task is to answer correctly their questions on mathematics and earn points to reach the highest score.”

Calculus: Suppose f(x) is a differentiable function for all real numbers x which also satisfies: f '(4) = 0, f '(x) is negative for all x less than 4, f '(x) is positive for all x greater than 4
What can be said about the critical value x = 4?
f(x) has a local maximum at x = 4 nothing can be said, we must use the second derivative test f(x) does not have a local extrema at x = 4 f(x) has a local minimum at x = 4
